what a difference $675k makes / 1 Hudson Street closes

Aug. 8, 2008
After dropping the price in February to $2.8mm, the 10th floor Manhattan loft sellers at 1 Hudson Street may have gotten a jolt when their 6th floor neighbors put their loft for sale at $2.75mm on March 14 and then dropped their price to $2.5mm by April 9

9 Murray Street #8W closes at just over $1,000/month / neighbor does faster (is higher better??)

Aug. 6, 2008
It is not often that I can talk about a Manhattan loft sale in terms of dollars per month, but this one at 9 Murray Street is just too good to pass up. The bonus angle is that a next door neighbor had a very different experience, closing a week earlier, p

130 West 17 Street #9S went for it + got it

Jul. 15, 2008
A top-floor Manhattan loft at 130 West 17 Street was the subject of one of my occasional Going For It! posts way back on September 23, 2007 (when I was still commenting on other firm's active listings), 130 W 17 9S is new + really going for it. As in simi

one year to contract at 45 Walker Street

Jul. 8, 2008
The deed transferring the Manhattan loft at 45 Walker Street #4 was filed two weeks ago, ending a rather long sales effort. At under $1,200/ft for a condo with low monthly charges, this is a relative Tribeca loft bargain.

116 West 14 Street closes at very old price / why so long?

Jul. 1, 2008
I hit on the Manhattan loft 2d floor at 116 West 14 Street when it was not-really-new-but-recycled to market at the beginning of the year (January 26, ‘new’ at 116 West 14 Street is recycled, green, pumped). It closed recently, with a deed filed June

11 West 20 Street #2 closes / did they get THAT??

Jun. 20, 2008
Today's new inter-firm list of Sold & Closed includes the Manhattan loft on the 2d floor at 11 West 20 Street, which is interesting (to me, at least) for a few reasons: (a) it can be either commercial or (when "re-zoned as of right") residential, (b) it s

another Broadway odyssey / 710 Broadway (finally) closes

Jun. 17, 2008
When I hit the Manhattan loft on the 2d floor at 710 Broadway in January, it was in its toddler stage, having passed its listing-birthday in December (Jan 9, 710 Broadway is slimmer after holiday break). Property Shark (but not StreetEasy) reveals the inf

O - d - y - s - s - e - y ends at 714 Broadway with 4th floor closing

Apr. 30, 2008
In the entire long history of 714 Broadway #4 it is surprising that I have only hit it once before February, in a Manhattan loft open house review on October 26

quick sale at 244 Madison

Apr. 18, 2008
The combo loft at #11CDE 244 Madison Avenue joined 3 units but only got "1,650 sq ft" out of it. Better, they got a contract within 3 weeks of coming to market in January and have just closed.

13 Jay Street closed but much appreciated

Apr. 15, 2008
The 4th floor Manhattan loft at 13 Jay Street showed up yesterday as Sold & Closed (with a clearing price of $2.175mm). Interesting that they never dropped the price in the 4 months it took to get to contract off that $2.495mm asking price. Yet the seller

if at first ... 543 Broadway back with fewer dollars

Mar. 31, 2008
Categorized in: Loft neighborhoods / SoHo
The 4th floor at 543 Broadway has a long sales history and -- as of today -- a new firm and price. Shawn Felker and Denise Joseph of PruDE are now marketing this "classic Soho loft!!" of "2,200+ sq ft" for $1.995mm. I hit it in its last round of marketing

conflicted about new loft at 20 N. Moore Street [CAUTION: conflict alert]

Mar. 8, 2008
#8E at 20 N. Moore Street is pretty new to the market (week before last), asking $3.45mm and $1,700/mo for "2,400 sq ft". I'd have blogged about it last week BUT it is my listing and I wanted to make sure that the sellers were comfortable with me doing a
